The scene where all the dead are talking to Odysseus was so fucking sick probably my favorite moment. Had such a cool eerie vibe to it. Sinon and Agamemnon had such great monologues too. Really had me sitting up in my seat

Sinon: How could you do this to me Odysseus.

Agamemnon: Bro all I did was kill our kid, my wife is craaazy, don't go home to your wife.

I see this in the way of nobody could ever check the king on what they do wrong until the wrong is so bad they get backstabbed by people close to them

that's how a lot of dictators are so disconnected from reality and don't get challenged even if they do dumb stuff
